jebllard03 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 First off I would like to say...I am sorry if I am posting this in the wrong place... I've been searching for the right place to post this and couldn't figure it out. So if I have posted this in the wrong place please let me know and I will gladly post this in the correct place. I need some help if yall wouldnt mind. I know that this question has been asking countless time. So please try not to get frustrated with me. So here goes.. I have windows Vista. I downloaded a new font... I would like to use it in PDN. I read the help files and have also used the google search. There were many reply's to this question and i thought that they would be helpful but i have tried a lot of them and for some reason I cannot get it to work for me. The font will show up in Mircosoft Office Word but not in PDN. I cannot figure out why.. or figure out what I am doing wrong. Maybe it's just me and I am having one of those days.. I'm not sure. But if anyone can help me it would be very much appreciated. Thank you all for your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himself22 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Maybe it's the wrong type of file. Is it a TrueType font? Quote "The truth is just an excuse for having a lack of imagination." Photobucket sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkut Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I just installed that font, and it shows in the Paint.NET font list. (I'm using Vista, also) My Paint.NET font drop-down opens not showing the top of the list, so I have to scroll up to see this font. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkut Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) Right-click > Install ========================== If the font comes in a zip, either extract the zip contents first or copy/paste the font file out before installing.

jebllard03 Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Right-click > Install I figured it out. i dont know what i was or was not doing earlier.. but it's working just fine now. But Thank you for your help Sarkut. And thank you to everyone else too.... I use PDN to design wedding invitations.. and don't really know how to use a lot of the tools... only cause i haven't really messed with them much.. but if anyone has anything cool like would like to share with me.. i'd love to know.
